1770 The date Australia lost it's independence
Australia was "discovered" by Lieutenant James Cook in 1770 when he came
ashore at the place called 1770. Australia lost it's independence that day as he claimed the place for the British. Oh well, It could have been worse, we could have been invaded by American's using an army of mass destruction, looking for weapons of mass destruction. http://www.ryadia.com/pod/June/10-06-07.htm |

Not having been schooled in Australia, I have only the "Red necks" (my friends, incidentally) information to guide. |

Yes? No? http://www.ryadia.com/PFF/June/cooks-landing.htm In April 1770 Cook, after exploring the coast of New Zealand headed west till he sighted the southeast corner of Australia. He then turned north and landed at Botany Bay. In May he continued north and next made landfall at Bustard Bay on May 24th. I know it is hard for you Doug, but you do have to at least try to get it right. |

By the way - I very much did like the photo of the boat at 1770 that started this thread. I'm sure the critics could probably find something wrong with it, but I reckon it looks ok. :-) |

The most alarming part of this one is so many variations on the History of Cook and all by people claiming to be born Australians. God save the queen and us if any of them (including the well meaning lady who misguided me) ever get any power in the country! |

Cos you call people "******s" and the like I guess and because previous posts have been pretty abusive as well, the past in this case is biting you on the bum!. |

Hey, that could still happen ... as long as that chimp is in charge. You guys have any oil and ****? If so, we'll be happy to come in and kill a few thousand of you to free you from your oppressive regime. |
